Holiday Party 2007:
This year, the Shelby American Collection will feature the magnificent 427-powered GT40 Mk II driven by Ken Miles and Denis Hulme to second place in the three-car sweep of the 24 Hours of Le Mans in 1966. The GT40 driven by Bruce McLaren and Chris Amon won first, while the GT40 of Ronnie Bucknam and Dick Hutcherson captured third in one of the closest finishes in the history of the endurance classic.
In addition to Carroll Shelby, museum special guests will include 1964 Le Mans GT class winner and 1965 F.I.A. World Championship driver Bob Bondurant, Shelby American Team driver Lew Spencer, team R&D Director Phil Remington, GT350 Project Manager Chuck Cantwell and Tom Yaeger. Shelby Automobiles president Amy Boylan and Bill Neale will also be on hand.
A founding member of the Automotive Fine Arts Society, Bill Neale's paintings form the centerpiece of many exclusive private and museum collections across the globe. While a contributing artist for magazines and books, he is best known for his private commissions of cars ranging from vintage race cars to the newest models out of Munich, Detroit and Tokyo. The Shelby American Collection's 11th annual event is expected to draw a crowd of over 400 attendees. The party is the non-profit organization's sole fund-raising event of the year with proceeds benefiting the
ongoing operation of the Shelby American Collection museum.
